[Vm-dev] Pharo 6.1 installation problem on Ubuntu 18.04.1 Bionic Beaver

[H. Hirzel]

Hello Alistair

The 64bit download

    curl get.pharo.org/64/61+vm | bash

did the the job. Thank you.

I got to the script I used through

    http://pharo.org/news/pharo6.1-released

    (Link from the main page -- http://pharo.org/web !, Read more about here)

and I thought it is a kind of generic script whereas it only downloads
the 32 bit version.
